Woman who found maggots in Qantas snack speaks up

IT IS the last thing you would expect to find in your airplane snack bag.

On board a Qantas flight from Los Angeles to Sydney on April 2, 42-year-old Victoria Cleven got a nasty surprise in her mid-flight snack - live maggots!

While the cabin lights were dimmed and everyone else was sleeping, she reached out for her packet of trail mix - which contains dried fruit, grains and nuts - and began chewing on it, only to taste something "soggy" and "squishy".
